How to Order Groceries from Amazon Fresh

For my recipe, I chose Amazon Fresh products. I chose to make a meal that is budget friendly, crowd pleasing, and hefty enough to feed up to 8 adults – Spinach Lasagna Skillet (recipe below.)

I chose it because of both the affordable ingredients (simple spices, canned tomatoes and stock), as well as calling for both fresh spinach (produce), dairy (cheese and cottage cheese) and ground beef (meat).

Amazon Fresh had all of these items available for my order.

Once I loaded up my cart, I scheduled the delivery window (2-hour window gives you free delivery) and I added a tip for the delivery driver and my order was on the way.

It arrived right on schedule, and in this case…just in time for dinner!

Spinach Lasagna Skillet

All the delicious flavors of lasagna, in a quick weeknight skillet version - made with ingredients from Amazon Fresh!

Prep Time20

Cook Time20

Servings - servings

Ingredients

1 lb. ground beef
1 Tbsp minced onion or 1/2 cup chopped onion
1 tsp garlic powder
8 oz. fresh spinach
15 oz. can diced tomatoes
15 oz. can tomato sauce
1 Tbsp Italian seasoning
Salt and pepper
2 cups chicken broth
8 lasagna noodles broken
1 cup cottage cheese in dollops
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
Fresh parsley for optional garnish

Instructions

Brown the ground beef with the minced onion and garlic powder in a large skillet with tight fitting lid. Drain and return to the skillet.
Add the fresh spinach over top of the browned ground beef and let cook over medium heat for a few minutes, stirring a few times while the spinach ‘melts.’
Once the spinach is all melted in, stir in the diced tomatoes (undrained) and tomato sauce with the Italian seasoning and some salt and pepper.
Bring to bubbling and then stir in the chicken broth and bring to bubbling again.
Once the broth-sauce is bubbling, add the broken lasagna noodles and float them deep into the sauce, as well as on the surface. Be sure that as much of the lasagna noodle is covered by the sauce so that it cooks evenly.
A tight fitting lid will help the steam ‘baste’ the noodles on the top too. Let cook over medium heat for 8-10 minutes, or until noodles are cooked al dente.
Remove from the heat and add the dollops of cottage cheese (or ricotta if you prefer) and sprinkle the Parmesan cheese and parsley over the top.
Serve Spinach Lasagna Skillet as a one dish dinner or with a side of salad, or garlic bread, or other favorite veggies.
